Since Using Eyelash Extensions and Growth Serums, my Eyelashes Have Become Sparse and Short. How Can I Get Them to Grow Back?

eek22
A couple years ago, wanting to go mascara-free, I tried lash extensions for the first time. When I had them removed two months later, my once thick, long lashes were sparse and short. Trying LiLash my lashes grew very long, but after about 5 months they all fell out! Since then, I have looked for other serums (without prostaglandins) to get my original healthy lashes back but nothing seems to work. I would like to know what went wrong and how I can get my lashes back. Did I do permanent damage?
